T Levels

About T Levels

T Levels are a 2-year qualification, broadly equivalent to three A Levels and accepted by universities.

You will spend 80% of your time in the classroom and 20% on a 45-day work placement to give you the skills and knowledge employers look for.

Entry requirements for all T Level courses at City of Bristol College are 5 x GCSEs at grade C/5 or above including English Language and Maths but some specific courses also have additional entry requirements; you will find this detailed on each individual course webpage.

Why T Levels?

T Levels involve more classroom study than apprenticeships, which means you can experience an industry while mainly studying at college.

The courses have been created with some of the UK’s biggest employers, so you can be confident your T Level will equip you with the skills you need to start your career.

T Levels are also worth UCAS points. A T Level Distinction* is worth the same as 3 A levels at A, so you can progress straight into higher education at university or a higher apprenticeship.
